nae President can Dust,

WASHINGTON, July 1.-THE supreme court
Of the District of Columbia, sitting in gen
eral term to-day, sustained the demurrer Of
the government and awarded a Judgment
of custer in the case of the United States
against John n. Oliver, a justice Of the
to remove him and claimed that he could be
displaced from his office only by the district
supreme court. The court, in an opinion
delivered by Chief Justice Bingham, holds
that the power to remove justices of the
peace resided IN the president alone down
to the organic act Of the court passed IN
March 1868, and that this act did not take
away the presidents power Of removal but
merely conferred on the court concurrent
mower of removal with the president.

No class of men are more progress
siye than Blackstonians, except in mat
tiers relating to technicalities of their
own profession. The tenacity with
which lawyers contend for worn out
saws aud antiquated maxims Is re-
markablc. They opposed tho common

said" ITO wis., "with force and arms"
"malice aforelhought," "bcing moved
and actusted by the devil" "and so
forth" aud against the peace and Dig
nifty OF the state" They contend that
the Blair bill is unco ,stitutioRai, be-
cause il encroaches upon The territory
of the State, and in the next breath,
approve the interstate commerce law
which ramifies every state and assumes
control of its chief interest. Bat,
while lawyers arc led into rigid con-
struction by adherence to the letters as
they find il, they are not so narrow
minded in most other matters. In
fact. the most radical innovations arc
frequently encouraged and turthered
by them.

HeIninC the Farmers.

The farmers are gradually getting from
Congress the attention to which they are
entitled. The agricultural interest of
the country is far greater than any
other, and yet it has received less at
tention from Congress than any other.
Congress and State Legislatures ap-
pear to think that the farmers need no
help. 1t is true that they are quite able
to take care of themselves, but there are
nevertheless many things which can be
done that would assist them greatly.
The bill which has Just passed the Sem
ate, providing agricultural experimental
stations, Will result in great good TO far.
mers. Each State and Territory will get
$4,000 year, to be expended under the
direction Of its agricultural college in
conducting experiments with reference TO
soils, plants, fruits, trees, stock and, IN
fact, everything that is connected with
agriculture in its various branches.
Comparatively few Southern farmers,
for instance, know what kind of grasses
are best suited to the climate and soils of
their respective localities, and a very
large percentage OF them is In doubt
about the kind of fertilizers which will
produce the best results.
II can be readily seen that there IS an
immense and very useful field in which
to use the money provided by this bill

The River and Harbor Bill.

The river and harbor bill is now in the
Senate, and it will soon be known whether
an increase in the appropriation for
savannah harbor can be obtained. In
view OF the fact that the Commerce Com
mittee of that body has reported favor
ably on a resolution TO double the appro-
pTlauon which the bill contains for
Charleston harbor, it would seem as il no
great difficulty should be experienced in
securing an increase OF the appropriation
which the bill contains for savannah
harbor, because the arguments adyanc d
in behalf Of Charleston will apply with
almost equal force to savannah.
1t is probable that bill carrying
lump appropriation. and clothing the Sec
rotary OF War with power TO dlsburse 1t
in localities where 1t is most needed,
would give greater satisfaction than the
present bill. There are many improve
meuts upon which work can be suspended
without damage to them, and there are
many others which VIII not need any
other appropriation for their continuance
than that which is now to their credit, be-
lore the Fittieth Congress can pass a
river and harbor bill. That being the case
it would he a wise thing for Congress to do
to make lump appropriation for rivers
and harbOrs and let the Secretary of War
use his discretion in applying it.
An appropriation of that sort would in
sure the continuation of the WORK on the
savannah harbor, because it is one
of the most important in the whole list OF
public improvements.
When the river ana harbor bill was
considered in theaaSuse the proposition
to make a MISREPRESENTATION seemed to
meet with favor, and would have been
adopted perhaps if the Chairman OF the
River and II afbOr Committee mad not
raised a technical objection. If the COM
mittee appointed from this city in tue in
terest OF Savannah harbor finds it i'm
possible to secure an increase in the Sa-
vannah harbor appropriation, it might
use its influence to induce the Senate to
favor alump appropriation. An Increase
in the appropriation tor Savannah harbor
is of such vital importance to this city
that the committee cannot afford to miss
a chance to get a sufficient amount to
prevent discOntinuanoe of work on the
Savannah improvement.
